Microsoft Considering Digital Game Resale?

A rumor has surfaced that Microsoft may be considering letting consumers resell their digitally downloaded games via an online marketplace.

If a recent forum post is true, Microsoft may be working on introducing a digital marketplace that lets you resell your used games to other Xbox One owners.

Although unconfirmed, the NeoGaf post outlines a supposedly leaked survey that suggests Microsoft is introducing a virtual place where Xbox One used games can be bought and sold at various prices, depending on included features; in essence, a virtual used game store where players sell to and buy from other players.

The survey also mentions the use of premium services, such as an Xbox Live Gold subscription (Or PlayStation Plus, if Sony introduces the rumored virtual marketplace). This seems to suggest that only members paying for these services will have access to the digital store.

We've reached out to Microsoft for comment, but the rumor is still unconfirmed.
